Sociopeoples

When we talk about sociopeoples, we are talking about preliminary evangelism. A sociopeople is a relatively small association of peers who have an affinity for one another based upon a shared interest, activity, or occupation.

Once we actually send long-term missionaries to a pioneer mission field, they have to learn a great deal
just to be able to live, communicate and better understand the target people.  Quite often we can effectively
evangelize individuals by starting a Bible study or a small prayer group within these specialized groups. There are almost unlimited potential opportunities for this type of group evangelism in our world today.  Thus, approaching a sociopeople can be strategic in giving a focus for ministry among a specific subset of the larger society as a first step to full-blown church planting.  Natural leaders and Bible teachers for churches might be discovered by first reaching businessmen or teachers.  On the other hand, you could choose the wrong group, such as focusing on children’s ministry for initial evangelism within a people,which in nearly every case would be interpreted as a threat to their natural families.

Sociopeoples help us begin evangelizing.
